Chapter Ninety-Two: Where to Go in the Imperial Study
"Cheng'er, you can rush into the palace as soon as possible after this incident, and I am very relieved to have the mind to take the overall situation into account." The emperor nodded approvingly at Yin Chenglian.
Gonggong Wei hurriedly served tea to Yin Cheng first, and said with a strong smile: "Ouch, isn't it!" His Royal Highness has done so properly and beautifully in the south, and he knows how to worry about the emperor and think about how to share the emperor's worries at a young age, which is really an example for all princes! ”
Grandpa Wei finished smiling, and secretly glanced at the emperor's expression, vaguely with a kind of expectation to see the excitement. But the emperor didn't care about it and didn't shy away from it, and glanced at the other young princes who had just come of age, and turned to King Xuan with a smile and said gently: "Third child, it's really not easy for you to move from the idyllic Xianyunlu to my imperial study. ”
King Xuan arched his hand and said with a smile: "The imperial brother is making fun of the minister." The pattern of the younger brother is far inferior to the imperial brother, and even Dongzhu Xia Zhu still discerned it for a while, such as when to turn the soil, when to water, when to fertilize, etc. has been a person in the house for a long time, and it is difficult to deal with foreign affairs. However, there is a way that the shore of the land is not the king's minister, as long as the royal brother gives an order, the courtier's brother will naturally die. ”
The emperor laughed heartily with satisfaction: "What a third child!" This last sentence reminds me of your demeanor when you first became the general of Xuanyuan. Back then, my father really didn't see the wrong person, you were the first of the 'five fingers of the royal hand', and you once followed your father to conquer the east and west, protect your family and defend the country. So today, Xuanwang Yin Yuanxun listened to the order, and I named my younger brother as the 'General of Zhenguo', and continued my brother's will to defend the country and defend the frontier. Third, would you like to? ”
King Xuan knelt on the ground, and the green and tall bamboo on his plain white and dark purple clothes folded along his knees: "Brother Chen, I am willing!" ”
"Good!" The emperor's face was overjoyed, his slightly tired eyes lit up, and he turned his head to glance at Grandpa Wei, who hurriedly smiled and held a plate covered with a red cloth and respectfully presented it to King Xuan.
The emperor pointed to the things on the plate and explained: "This is the sword that my father carried with him every time he went on an expedition when he was alive. Back then, in the battle of Taya with your father, your father unfortunately died, and even the bones were gone, and the burial in the imperial tomb has been a well-dressed mound for so many years. And only this sword, intact, was left from the terrible battle, and now, I give it to you. ”
King Xuan's gaze began to become turbulent, and countless complex emotions grew vigorously under his eyes, and in a blink of an eye, they were all harvested and suppressed by him.
"Thank you, Brother Huang." King Xuan's hand that took the sword trembled uncontrollably, as if the sword had just been salvaged from the sword pool, and his whole body was hot. King Xuan swallowed his throat, "Back then, in that battle, my brother couldn't look back for a long time. This sword, the younger brother unknowingly brought back from the battlefield unharmed. Presumably, General Zhang brought it back, right? ”
The emperor nodded quietly: "You and Zhang Yueheng are the only two people left in the 'Five Fingers of the Imperial Palace' sealed by the first emperor." ”
"Brother Huang, the scene of riding a horse and whipping a horse with an old friend and fighting on the battlefield is something that my brother dreams of and even dare not think of. Brother Yue Heng has guarded Cheng'er all these years, doing his best, and he is safe and sound. But the younger brother listened to him, for many years, he had never slept peacefully in the warm house and soft couch, never put away the marching tent, and for many years, the wind, frost, cold and snow have never been abandoned. Its ambition has never been old! Therefore, the royal brother and the courtier have the courage to have a request. ”
"Third child, stop." The emperor cleared his throat, stared silently for a moment, and continued, "Zhang Yueheng, I don't know anything about his behavior. As for where he goes, I know in my heart. And you, come in Tayaben and invade the realm again and again, and today's meteorite incident is a sensation on both sides of the border, and now Taya is already a soldier and ready to go. When it comes to the level of understanding of the terrain of Taya's border operations and the marching tactics of Taya's army, Si Shi can't find a second person other than you. I need you, the court needs you, and now the sword left by my father needs you, and the whole Dayin needs you, do you understand? ”
King Xuan didn't say anything more, he let out a heavy "um" categorically, kowtowed deeply, put the heavy sword at his side, and slowly sat back.
Yin Chenglian was silent on the side for a long time, contemplating his eyebrows. The emperor glanced at Yin Chenglian, who was speechless, and Wen Yan asked, "Cheng'er, what's wrong, do you have anything to think about?" ”
Yin Chenglian thought about the few words of admonition before entering the palace, and said with a determined face: "Father, there are many state affairs at present, and the son, as the head of all the brothers, consciously should share his father's worries and serve the country. Zhang Yueheng in the Erchen Mansion is not only an old friend of Uncle Wang Wang, but also a friend of Uncle Wang's old time, and Erchen has also accumulated a lot of experience after going south, and he will never cause trouble for Uncle Xuan, nor will he disappoint his father! ”
Gonggong Wei couldn't help but frown when he looked at Yin Chenglian, who had a hairy face and made a generous statement, and quietly watched the emperor's reaction. The emperor stared at Yin Chenglian for a long time, and then looked at King Xuan, who also looked at Yin Chenglian with some incredulity.
"Cheng'er, the border matter, you Uncle Xuan Wang has always been familiar with it, so you don't have to follow to get involved." The emperor lowered his eyes faintly, raised the teacup and took a few sips, and said, "Father has other things to do with you." ”
Yin Chenglian has always known in his heart how powerful the water and fire of Ta Ya and Da Yin are, and this time with the blessings of King Xuan and Zhang Yueheng, he is quite eager to prove himself again. Yin Chenglian said with a determined gaze: "But my father, my son-in-law has already led troops south once, and I won't add it to Uncle Xuanwang-"
"I'm already there, and I'll leave something else to you. Why, are you starting to get complacent about your achievements? Why don't you take Zhang Yueheng to raise troops to the north, and I will send you Uncle Xuan Wang to continue to go home and plant bamboo? The emperor's expression suddenly became solemn and stern, Yin Chenglian didn't expect that his enthusiasm would turn into rashness, so he couldn't help but hang his head and say no, and sat back obediently.
The emperor took a deep look at him, took a faint breath, and said slowly: "Okay, I summoned you to the palace today for the consequences and countermeasures of the meteorite incident. Remember, since you are my brother and son, you need to always think about me and the country, and you must work with me to stabilize the people's hearts and minds. Got it. ”
After everyone replied in unison, they retreated one after another. When Yin Chenglian had just stepped out of the threshold of the imperial study with his head down, he suddenly heard a gentle voice that was not as stern as he was.
"Cheng'er, you stay." The emperor slowly beckoned to Yin Chenglian.
"Father, the son was impatient for a while, and the father was disappointed, and the son knew his mistake." Yin Chenglian hung his head.
"You sit down." The emperor pointed to the seat opposite his coffee table, Yin Chenglian hesitated, and sat down obediently. The emperor looked at Yin Chenglian for a moment, and said slowly, "You just insisted on going north with King Xuan, did your Uncle Xuan give you any advice?" ”
Yin Chenglian blinked in confusion and said, "Father, I have never had any contact with Uncle Xuanwang, and he has never given me any advice, and he doesn't even have a chance to talk on weekdays. Today, I also entered the imperial study, and the son learned that his father was going to send Uncle Xuan Wang to the north. ”
The emperor nodded thoughtfully, and then looked at Yin Chenglian silently for a long time, and asked: "I ask you, in your opinion, which is more important, leading troops to the south or leading troops to the north?" ”
Yin Chenglian frowned, feeling infinite regret in his heart, why did he have to slap his swollen face to be fat, he looked cramped and worried. When the emperor saw it, he said with a pleasant expression: "Cheng'er, you are my son, there are no outsiders at this moment, so there is no need to look forward and backward." I just want to hear how far my eldest son's vision has reached. ”
Yin Chenglian gritted his teeth, touched the tip of his nose, and said stubbornly: "Thanks to the trust of my father, my son will say it in vain." Everyone knows that Taya is the old enemy of Da Yin for many years, and the enemy's strength is not to be reckoned with, in the early years, the Taya clan even led troops to attack the capital, and the division of the tiger and wolf can kill it without choking its throat and then quickly! Erchen thought that although there was no big difference in matters related to the country's livelihood and people, there was a difference in priority, so it was Erchen who wanted to be anxious about his father's urgency and what he was anxious about, and he was looking forward to following Uncle Xuan to fight north. ”
